Technical Requirements

To ensure Bruno looks his best, having the right materials is key. While you can use any yarn weight, we suggest the following for this Ankylosaurus Bruno Crochet Pattern:

Recommended Materials:

• Yarn: Worsted Weight or DK yarn. Cotton yarn gives excellent stitch definition for the armor plates, while Chenille makes him a plushie.

• Hook: A 2.5mm to 3.5mm hook is recommended to create a tight fabric so the stuffing doesn’t show.

• Details: Safety eyes (8mm to 10mm) and contrasting yarn for the spikes.

• Stuffing: High-quality polyfill to keep him round and sturdy.
